If you actually look up the corrcet word you will see. These are the results for cad at www.dictionary.com:

A man whose behavior is unprincipled or dishonorable.
A lowbred, presuming person; a mean, vulgar fellow.
Someone who is morally reprehensible; "you dirty dog"


See, you 'unprincipled' university student. ;)
How dare you accuse me of speaking words that I don't know the meaning of.
You fudge!! :)

Don't mind me, this guy's just been annoying me with bloody thing. Just because the x-box GTA3 has a few screenshots and can still be bought here, doesn't account for much. It's not a definate statment that the game will be released for the console, Jez can't or won't see this.

Before anyone says 'Well its out for the PC innit?' please realise that this announcment was made at E3 last week, only a couple of days for the PC, so canning the Pc version, was a bit pointless at the time. Plus the PC isn't direct competition for the PS2, so it only seems fair the machine gets it.

Thats it! thats all I'm arguing for this, if jez wants to ignore the official announcement and continue on living in a dream land, then so be it. I no longer care.

OK, fair enough. I was just saying that he had a point about the listing being in Special Reserve's shop. However, it looks like you are right and I am gonna leave it there cos I'm not really that interested anyway.

I have a PS2 and Grand Theft Auto 3 so I'm not bothered either way.

Didn't Playstation have a deal with Rockstar concerning when they could release the PC version? The whole reason I bought a PS2 was for GTA3. I got Devil May Cry with it too but just sold it on straight away without even playing it.

the funny thing about that announcement is they say "We want our best-selling franchise to reach the greatest number of consumers" and yet to achieve this, they limit it's availability to the PS2.

Is that contradictory, is it just me?
